UMG file application for rejection of Drake’s lawsuit against the allegations “not like us”; He claims that “he lost the rap battle he caused”

Published

At this point, I ponder if there’s someone who just isn’t aware of the feud determined between Drake and Kendrick Lamar. What began in March 2024, when Future and Metro BOCOMIN released an album with the final billboard “Like That”, transformed into an organization that took over the summer of 2024, the culmination of the culmination of Legacy Record Kendrick Lamara, “Not like us” that from this letter in March 2025 and after 44 weeks, remains to be the 5 best hot 100 billboards single in the country.

You know that. I do know that. Your aunt and grandmother know this because all of us saw Kendrick Lamar appearing in Super Bowl in February. It was a banner for Kendrick. Not a lot for Drake. He lost the battle, but went on a concert tour in Australia and dropped the album with the artist Ovo Partynextdoor, who hit the charts. Their current single “Nokia” is doing well on the charts.

But there’s also an incredible “he did what?!?!” From November 2024, through which Drake submitted several legal actions against Kendrick, Universal Music Group (UMG) and Iheart Media, claiming that they each applied backdoor methods to inflate the popularity of “Not Like Us” – to Drake’s camp, the album is definitely BOP, but there isn’t a popular one. Drake also claims that defamation and litany of other things, a surprising movement in the rap battle; Diss Records often use the most cruel and igniting statements and texts, attempting to overthrow the enemy. Drake knows that; He was in quite a bit of rap battles.

At the starting of this month Drake and iheartmedia They were decided by a legal DISPUte, with iheartmedia, to remind you that the case was put to bed because they did nothing incorrect. UMG probably feels the same, but he moved to a more pointed and hip-hop oriented way in his application for release.

According to VarieIn their application for release, UMG accepted a more direct, biting approach to telling his truth, saying that Drake “lost the rap battle, which he provoked and in which he willingly participated.” The label lasted: “Instead of accepting a loss, like an indefinite rapper, who often claims, he sued his own label in an incorrect try and plant wounds.

Ouch.

For those that might have a translation – so as – his statement principally says: “Drake began, Kendrick finished it, and instead of being a guy who is too big for all, as his music suggests, he decided to sue because his feelings are hurt.”

The fact that all this may be very public is doing absolutely nothing for Drake’s best guy in a hip-hop narrative; In many circles, the worst thing you possibly can do as a rapper is to submit a lawsuit since you lost the battle.

Iheartmedia says that the legal dispute from Drake was settled because

UMG also claims that Drake is a hypocrite. In 2022, many artists signed a letter entitled “Art on Trial: Protect black art” Criticizing the use of rappers’ texts against them in court. Drake was one of the signatories. Drake also sucks UMG for defamation; UMG claims that Kendrick’s texts are essentially an artist doing artists and don’t fulfill a legal bar with a view to defamate.

In response to the application for release Drake, Michael J. Gottlieb made available a spread:

“UMG wants to pretend that it is a rap battle to divert the attention of its shareholders, artists and public opinion from a simple truth: the greedy company is finally responsible for enjoying profits from dangerous disinformation, which has already led to many acts of violence.”

Regardless of whether it’s God’s plan or not, it seems that Drake doesn’t withdraw, and Him and his camp are ready … to argue.
